You can find dried rice koji on Amazon. 🍯 Methods 1. Soak the soy beans overnight, then cook it in water for 2-3 hours, or until soy beans are soft. You can use a pressure cooker to reduce the cooking time. 2. Add the koji and water into a bowl, mix well and leave for 20 mins to absorb water. 3. When the soy beans are cooked, drain and blend in a food processor until you have a paste. 4. Mix the soybean paste, salt koji and miso together, knead for 5-10 mins. 5. Roll the miso into round balls (this helps removing the air in miso), place them in a clean container, press down the miso balls thoroughly to remove all air. 6. Place the container in a dark and cool place, let it ferment for 3-6 months. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 💚 Want to see more healthy and delicious plant-based recipes ?
